Progress, sort of...

So, I have a bunch of things to do, and the whole relapse thing was so not in my schedule.  We've already renegotiated the deadline for Alliance of Equals, but the other things on the plate can't exactly be renegotiated.  So, I'm plugging away at them, doggedly -- no, make that grimly -- and hoping to ghod that I'll pick up something like energy and brainpower SOON.

On the to-do list are these things:

1.  Get paperwork/form to accountant no latter than February 20

2.  Get Best Guess for 2015 income, and copies of 2014 income tax returns to ACA on or before February 15 (you will note the discrepancies in the dates)

3.  Hand in Alliance of Equals, by no later than May 29

So. . .this morning, I spent filling in accounting paperwork, slowly; and took a stab at the Best Guess for 2015 income.  The ACA is going to have to make do with the 2013 income tax returns, because that's what I have.  Also?  It does not fill me with joy that the ACA cannot itself get its act in gear to adhere to the IRS deadline of mailing Important Tax Documentation no later than January 31.  They sent me an email this morning indicating that I could look forward to having my 1095-A, Health Insurance Marketplace Statement in "early" February.  Sigh.  Here's hoping that's not "early" by gummint standards.

After lunch, I answered a couple emails, and now, after I'm done this blog entry, I shall repair to the couch to read (again) the first 40K or so of Alliance of Equals, with an eye to, yanno, actually going to work sometime soon.

In other news -- well, actually there is no other news, except that I just purchased three books about the Romani/Gypsies.  At this rate, I'm going to have to write another book about the Bedel.

So, what're you doing that's fun?

The Bedel and so many other aspects of the Liaden universe want stories. You need a Big Writing Team™!

Of course, then all you'd be left with is management, and we all know that's no fun ... ;p

No, what I need is that Ivory Tower in the woods, with the Invisible Hands as housekeepers/cooks. They -- THEY -- don't tell you, when you decide to do the writer thing, that you're going to have to choose your projects, and that sometimes the projects you choose will have to be stuff like laundry.

They -- THEY -- don't tell you

As usual THEY have a lot to answer for. And the cats only do supervision.
